Windward Grille Restaurant in Essex Has Closed

 A North Shore restaurant that resided in an historic space has closed down.

According to a source, Windward Grille Restaurant in Essex is now shuttered, confirming what we had heard earlier this summer about its pending closure. The dining spot, which was located on Route 133 east of the town center, was known mainly for its classic American fare and regional dishes, including a variety of seafood options; the farmhouse in which it resided dates back to the 1600s.

Our source tells us that a new restaurant may be going into the space, though we haven't been able to confirm this as of yet.

The address for the now-closed Windward Grille Restaurant was 109 Eastern Avenue (Route 133), Essex, MA, 01929.

NOTE: We need your help, as Leslie Hurwitz, who is the father of Marc (the founder of this site) is dealing with health issues and some major related expenses. Please donate at https://gofund.me/76d8ba28, thanks!
